The 10 commandments of the Philippines' Cybercrime Law

You shall only say nice things on the Internet--This is the main fault attributed to the law: It's a violation of the Freedom of Expression with its cyberlibel provision. Thanks to this provision inserted "without knowledge" by most of the lawmakers, if you say something bad against certain people on the Internet, you can be charged in court. What's more, according to Bayan Muna Representative Teddy Casiño, this not only applies to statements...

What A Fool is a Lover Could Be

(Photo form: Devian Art) Diamonds shimmer in the depths of the calmest pond. I reach for one, but I can’t touch. Instead I create a current and stir the murky depths Mud and clay cloud the once clear pool. Only evidence is washed away in a roaring wave. The wave descends and shatters the once still air Into the voices of a thousand tiny angels, Each one crying out for a lost soul to save. As the river breaks into the ocean...

Know the Law: On the Need to Disseminate Republic Act 9994

Booklets for distribution, Right and Privileges of Senior Citizens (R.A. 9994)       Many senior citizens were overjoyed when the bill now known as Republic Act 9994 was signed into law in 2010.

On Political Dynasty

(Photo from: NAMFREL) Marami ang lumalabas na katanungan kung ano ba talaga ang DYNASTY? Marami na ang naguguluhan tungkol dito. May dunong man o wala ay pinag-iisipan kung ano ba ang dynasty na ipinakikipaglaban ng nakararami.

‘How’s your day?’ A question that on my bad days makes me grouse and rant a reply. But after that, I would vow silently for the umpteenth time, never to lose perspective again. For many of us, work lays claim to our time and emotion, possessing us completely as any spouse or child. But those of us who think we have hard jobs can learn a lot from those who really do.

Boo F*cking-hoo

We musn't forget that life is only as serious as we make it. I refuse to take every bad experience and make it seem like it's a life changing thing. It is what it is. Sh*t happens. So you got dumped. So you got rained on. So you stepped on gum. Boo-f*cking-hoo. That doesn't mean we must forget to smile. Sometimes, when you're really down, you have to realize that not everything has gone wrong. You still have eyes to see with, hands to work...
